Lang Tengah Island

To Relax, Refresh, Breathe and feel alive.

Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia
Lang Tengah Island (locally known as Pulau Lang Tengah) is truly a tropical jewel of Malaysia’s east coast, situated in the state of Terengganu. Its beauty and tranquillity comes from the combination of tall coconut trees, dazzling crystal clear water, white sandy beach and well-preserved marine life. Lang Tengah Island is simply irresistible. Summer Bay Resort, Lang Tengah Island is located between Pulau Redang and Pulau Perhentian, and can be accessed by boat from Summerbay Jetty Mangkuk. We encourage our guests to take full advantage of a chance to rest and relax from the hustle and bustle of the city. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the silence of the sea, the music of the forest, breathe in the fresh sea the breeze of the South China Sea and soak up the sunshine while you`re here.

The tropical waters around Lang Tengah are clear with turquoise hues. The designated marine park in the island has corals and fish life is quite excellent. During peak season, the waters are calm which is excellent for learning to dive with one of the dive centres on the island. In contrast to the neighboring islands of Perhentians and Redang, the island is quite low key.

The island has excellent coral reefs with teeming fish life and occasional sharks and rays. The island has nesting green turtles from April to October. Occasional hawksbill turtles also nest and are regularly seen in the sea. There are quite a few monitor lizards (biawak in Malay) but they are rarely seen near the resort beaches. In the early morning, the smaller monitor lizards commonly patrol the shoreline in the quiet parts of the island. The island is covered with primary forest and has a wide variety of birds, frogs, lizards and insects.

Like the rest of Malaysia's east coast, Lang Tengah is affected by the northeast monsoon from the South China Sea, so most resorts are closed and ferry transport schedules are severely restricted between October and March.
